[racket] How can I add new keywords (for syntax highlighting) to DrRacket ?

Edit|Preferences, Editing, Indenting. Add "if" to one of those
columns. If you dont' want to change the indentation of if, but do
want it to be a keyword, then DrRacket isn't currently flexible enough
for you (patches welcome).
